The analysis results show that the average difference of pretest and posttest of eight-weeks-plyometric exercise has an average improvement of 12,82% on age of 12-14 and 14,56% on age of 14-17 years old. Meanwhile, six-weeks-plyometric exercise has an average growth of 12,57% on age of 12-14 and 13,46% on age of 14-17 years old. The conclusion of this research proves that there is an influence of 6 weeks and 8 weeks of agility training of 12-14 and 14-17 years old fighters, and there is a difference of plyometric effect of 6 weeks and 8 weeks on agility and there is a difference of influence of plyometric training for fighters in the age of 12-14 and 14-17 years old.
